welcomes you to the new, improved website!This prospective trial from 14 ICUs in northern Europe evaluated the potential benefit of adding immune-modulating nutrients (IMHP) to standard enteral nutrition in reducing infectious complications in ventilated patients. The addition of IMHP did not alter the incidence of infectious complications, but was associated with much worse 6 month survival (35% vs 54%).
